A wire bonding method and apparatus implement the flatly thinner plastic deformation for the joint section of a wire, which has a diameter ranging 100-600 &mgr;m, on its feed side, feed out and position the flatly deformed wire joint section to a target joint surface, and join the wire to it by pressing the positioned wire joint section, with vibration being applied, onto the joint surface with a ultrasonic wire bonder. A high-power semiconductor device fabricated based on this scheme has a long life of wire joints.

A semiconductor device, suitable for use in an invertor device for large currents in which IGBT chips are used and of which a high reliability is required, has an insulating plate on which are mounted semiconductor chips, a resin case enclosing the semiconductor chips, a filler resin filled into the resin case and covering the semiconductor chips and filling in the space between the semiconductor chips and the resin case, and a heatsink to which the insulating plate is attached, wherein, for purposes of attaching the insulating plate to the heatsink, the resin case is used to press the insulating plate onto the heatsink. Some benefits of this construction are that is makes it possible to eliminate the problem of fatigue failure of a solder layer previously used for attaching the insulating plate to the heatsink by dispensing with that solder layer, while at the same time improving the transfer of heat from the insulating plate to the heatsink, and thereby improving the removal of heat from the device. The construction also makes it possible to reduce cracking of the insulating plate, reduce breakage of mounting portions of the resin case and to use the device to make a small, thin, light and highly reliable invertor device.

A cylinder pressure sensor is adapted to detect a cylinder pressure by detecting a change in the amount of light being transmitted through an optical fiber in an axial direction. Two support portions support the optical fiber at two points along the length thereof. A diaphragm in contact with the optical fiber causes bending of the optical fiber in dependence upon a change in the cylinder pressure. The position at which a force is applied against the optical fiber by the diaphragm is deviated from a center position between the two support portions. The resulting cylinder pressure sensor is capable of accurately measuring cylinder pressure and knocking over a long period of time with a low cost and reduced initial variations.

A semiconductor substrate has a major surface, another major surface on the opposite side of the first major surface, a strain gauge stripe formed in the central portion of the second major surface by diffusing an impurity therein, and electrodes connected to the strain gauge stripes. These strain gauge stripes are spaced from the peripheral edge of the second major surface by a distance greater than 1/3 of the length of the same major surface. The first major surface of the semiconductor substrate is bonded to an elastic metal load plate.

In a structure in which peripheral part of a diaphragm section of an electrical insulating film is covered with a protective film made of an organic material, the resistor wire on the diaphragm section crosses the peripheral part of the diaphragm section. At a place where a narrow wire of a resistance temperature detector and the like crosses the peripheral part of the diaphragm section, the protective film is thinner than the other part, and the dust impact resistance is reduced. At a place where a heating resistor wire connected to a heating resistor body or resistance temperature detector wires connected to resistance temperature detector bodies cross a periphery of the diaphragm section, a film component protruding from an electrical insulating film is arranged side by side with the heating resistor wire or the resistance temperature detector wires.
